Abstract:Based on the ReOs isochron age (40.3 5.6Ma) of disseminated molybdenite from the Chongmuda skarntype CuAu deposit in Gangdisê, Tibet, two sets of ReOs isochron ages for the orefield were obtained. The molybdenite ReOs isochron age of blind porphyrytype molybdenum deposit is 30.26±0.69Ma and spotted molybdenite ReOs isochron age of Nuri layered skarntype WCu Mo deposit superimposed by later quartz diorite porphyry is 23.62±0.97Ma. Starting with the new understanding of strikeslip marginal metallogenesis, this paper summarizes the characters of marginal strikslipping metallogenesis, and spatialtemporal distribution of porphyry deposits in the Gangdisê metallogenic belt. ① The porphyrytype deposits and stratiform skarn deposits are the primary types of the known mediumandlargesized copper polymetallic deposits in the belt. ② Early (68~38Ma) deposits were controlled by the 1storder and 2ndorder leftlateral strikeslip transforming structure in the strikeslip convergent stage of the "IndiaAsian continental margin", while late (30~13Ma) deposits by the 3rdorder and 4thorder leftlateral strikeslip transforming structure in the divergent strikeslip stage of the "IndiaAsian continental margin". ③ The formation of ore bodies in porphyrytype deposits is subject to strikeslip holding faults, while the formation of ore bodies of stratiform skarn deposit is subject to strikeslip dragging faults. ④ The stress field of regional strikeslip transform oreforming structure is characterized by anticlockwise rotation, which indicates that during 68~13Ma, the Indian Continent spliced obliquely towards northern northeast relative to the Asian Continent, and was replaced by the extensionaldominated stress field during the formation of SouthNorth collisional rift at 13~8Ma. At last, this study outlines the orientation for ore exploration: molybdenum and tungsten deposits along the margin, and CuAu polymetallic along strikeslip transforming structure belt, with a main target at rich and large compound porphyrytype and stratabound skarntype deposits.
